Little Zeb Trivia: I drafted 90%+ of this while Ole was asleep on me and battling ear infections. I wrote it all on my phone and just added revisions and hyperlinks at the very end. It was an interesting experiment; we’ll see if I repeat it.

Bluesky tutorial How to make links prettier. Follow these steps: 1. Log into deck.blue, a third party client akin to what Tweet Deck was for Twitter. 2. Compose a new post by clicking the button on the top left. 3. Copy your link, select text you want to turn into a link and hit paste (CTRL+V) 4. Your links should look this in the composer: [Text](https://link.com) 5. Hit Post! Bonus tip Hit "Win + ." in the deck.blue post composer to open an emoji selector. Alternatively you can type ":" and it opens an emoji drop down selector like in Discord.

Use icons, symbols, terms, and design patterns that are already familiar to users. People with cognitive disabilities benefit from common behavior and design patterns. An example is the standard convention for hyperlinks (underlined and blue for unvisited; purple for visited).

I've invented a new thing called a "web site" that I'm hosting over at @fragrant.garden's tilde server and I think the concept has legs. Check it out if you are so inclined! matrix.garden/~trunnion/
The aforementioned "web site" with a text and hyperlinks, a wholly novel concept.

Oh man, if I'm watching a Youtube video to analyze it, I have to basically mute and read the subtitles. Too much going on otherwise lol. Even then, I vastly prefer written stuff, citations and hyperlinks are my friends.

The screen reader might simply skip the entire URL or it might read it out letter-by-letter. Neither of which is helpful to anyone.

Screen readers do know what to do with actual hyperlinks to actual webpages, which are what happen when you put the URL in the body of the post.

Every Papillon breeder’s website comes from the dawn of the Internet.
Disyre Papillons. It’s most advanced feature is cursive. Loketi Papillons. It starts with a novel about Iowa. ET’s papillon. I, honey, cannot tell you how ugly this is. Nor do I want to. Lavender. Small pics (click to enlarge!). Hyperlinks in blue (one to an article from 2008). Delyteful papillons. Yes it’s spelled that way. What if I wrote an inquiry & started it, “Deer Idyotte?”

This article might be the best example yet of why inline hyperlinks are garbage. They are lazy, inadequate substitutes for citing one’s work. It’s not clear how most of these links support the author’s premises or conclusions.
The article sounds like it was written by ChatGPT, or more likely Grok.

Okay, Reichweite. Hab da auch einen Account. Aber Insta erscheint mir als ebenso seltsam programmiert, benutzerunfreundlich (no Vollbildanzeige, no klick auf Bild möglich, no Hyperlinks, komplizierteste Handhabung v versch. Bildformaten ever, keine echten Threads möglich) wie überflüssig.

I remember when TV Tropes was first launched back when I was in undergrad (pretty sure I found it through Buffy fandom). Just a simple website with a list of hyperlinks about TV shows. We should go back to that.
ladyemily.nebula.tv Lady Emily ☄️ @ladyemily.nebula.tv · 18d
TV Tropes is blocking access to the site not only if you have ad blockers on but location tracking off unless you want to subscribe to their $5 a month/$25 a year subscription plan. Even people who have turned their ad blockers off are reporting the site isn’t working. This all seems like a bad idea

Removing the hyperlinks completely defeats the purpose of the online encyclopedia. This isn't Web 3.0. It isn't even Web 1.0. This is useless.

Wikipedia vs Elon Musk

In a world of algorithms and AI slop, the simple joy of aimlessly wandering through a website of ideas is worth preserving.

✍️ www.linestotake.com/p/wikipedia-...

My newsletter, out now.
What I always liked about Wikipedia — even more so now — is its absence of an algorithm. If you started off searching for who defeated Bill Clinton in the 1980 Arkansas gubernatorial election (answer at the end), there’s every chance you’ll fall down a rabbit hole and half an hour later you’ve missed your flight but at least you’ve learned everything there is to know about the 1824 Constitution of Mexico. Everywhere else, what we watch is either pre-determined — or highly curated. On YouTube, the world’s largest video-sharing platform, algorithms drive more than 70% of all content consumed. On TikTok, it is the entire model. Whether these systems are simply giving us more of what we want or deliberately nudging us toward extremes, the result is the same: our curiosity is no longer our own. But on Wikipedia, you are in control. The hyperlinks may be vying for your attention, but there is no autoplay widget or blackbox deciding what you’ll see next. To borrow from video game terminology, Wikipedia is open-world, rather than linear. In that sense, it harks back to the messy early days of the internet. Whereas Grokipedia seems to be its modern-day equivalent — an attempt to repackage knowledge inside a single, curated worldview. Wikipedia is not unbiased. It is open source and while, theoretically, anyone can edit it, it is in reality largely maintained by a group of ‘super editors’. But it still provides a refuge from the never-ending conveyor belt of pre-determined short-form videos and AI slop. For that reason, if you have fallen down a Wiki rabbit hole, it is, gloriously, entirely on you.

I’m sick of finding interesting articles on videos behind a persons head. No Links. And then having to search out that article via a screengrab. Things were better ten years ago. This isn’t just me being an old man. Text based social media with hyperlinks was better. The children are wrong

Last week I built a text adventure in discord to sell fake books and real zines #over/under
Discord screenshot, all one message. A few of the nouns - Diesel, newspaper clipping, "a number of zines," etc., are hyperlinks. Text reads: Up front, Diesel sits at a counter improvised from a heavy steel desk. Behind her, a newssheet clipping bearing her face is taped to the wall. A sign hanging from the desk says: All books and vids 10 CR. Ask for a recommendation! Romance! Fantasy! 'Science' Fiction! Don't see it? Just ask?! Lesbian Content A Specialty!!! ------------------------------------------------------------------- A table is laid out across from the counter. A sign above it says: All zines 50 CR A number of zines are laid out on the table below. Next to the zines is a new display ! DIESEL'S BOOKS! THE HOME OF KILO GRACE! Next to the zines is a small table, with a display featuring a bowl of burning incense (the rich smell of myrrh) and a book open to a Ritual For Logging Off.

Yeah unfortunately it's more of a work-around type scheduled posting with a temp server since Bsky doesn't support it natively so I understand why it's paid TBH. But I do like DeckBlue because you can have clickable hyperlinks using it so it makes posts look much more clean for shop promos
